BNB HODLer Issue 35 $SOMI @Somnia_Network is a high-performance EVM public chain that aims to make Web3 applications run as smoothly as Web2.

On the mainnet, Somnia's execution engine can compile EVM bytecode into machine code, processing 1 million transactions per second, with a block delay of 100ms and almost zero Gas.

This speed means that playing games, browsing social media, and exploring the metaverse do not require waiting for block confirmations; the blockchain is completely invisible and imperceptible.

🎈The native token $SOMI is not only used to pay transaction fees but can also be staked by validators, delegated, and used for governance voting.

The total supply is 1 billion tokens, with a circulating supply of 160.2 million tokens, accounting for 16.02%; private placement financing is 151.5 million USD, accounting for 15.15% of the supply.

Since the launch of the testnet in early 2025, Somnia has accumulated impressive community data:

70+ dApps launched, including games, social media, and DeFi;

Single-day processing of 1.04 billion transactions, breaking the highest record for EVM chains (66.9 million);

Cumulative transactions on the testnet exceeding 10 billion, attracting over 6.6 million unique addresses, 2.9 million MAU, and 730,000 DAU;

Collaboration with MSquared to host real-time events for thousands of players for brands like MLB and TWICE.

The official roadmap shows that Somnia will complete the prototype in Q1 2024, release Devnet in Q4, launch the public Testnet in Q1 2025, and plans to go live on the Mainnet in Q3 2025. Subsequently, features such as game metadata framework, Gas discount model, Slashing, and Somnia Browser will be gradually launched.

Who would have thought that a public chain could be so vibrant!
